Congratulations! The nominations for the 10th Annual Podcast Awards were announced and you can see the full list at www.PodcastAwards.com. There are a few shows I’m proud to highlight here that are featured on BlogTalkRadio. I’m also going to share the rest of my voting ballot, much like I shared my nomination ballot. Here we go.

Nominated in the Business category is Freakonomics. The show is hosted by Stephen Dubner and entices listeners to “prepare to be enlightened, engaged, perhaps enraged, and definitely surprised.” This show has been featured on BlogTalkRadio since 2010 and happy to vote for them to win a Podcast Award.

Success Freaks is nominated in the General category. A newcomer to BlogTalkRadio, Charles McFall and R. Mordant Mahon help others to be awesome. They are multiple time nominees for the Podcast Awards, having a presence with one show or another for 6 straight years. We should let them know, they’re awesome with a Podcast Award.

The Thinking Atheist is nominated in the Religion category. While it may seem like an oxymoron, it is not the only podcast tackling the subject of atheism in the Religion category. Seth Andrews hosts the show and just recently celebrated episode 200 on BlogTalkRadio.

As BlogTalkRadio continues to evolve and provide content creators better tools like the HD Pro Studio, we hope to see more of our listener focused shows recognized for their ability to entertain, educate and inspire their audiences. Now here’s the rest of my Podcast Awards ballot. You can vote every day at www.PodcastAwards.com until March 18th.

People’s Choice: My old show, ESPN Fantasy Focus: Football is nominated in this category and I would be humbly grateful for your vote. I did work on it for 10 of the 12 months in 2014. I think most people are going to vote forSerial, the podcast that changed the world. If I’m not going to vote for myself though, then my vote goes to my buddy Rob Cesternino and Rob Has A Podcast. He won the Best Produced last year and still has a fantastic show. So glad to see his show doing so well.

Best Produced: I mentioned in my nominations blogpost that they should rename this award to the Radiolab Award. No show comes close to this one in production value.

Mobile Insights Radio, hosted by Intel engineer and executive Peter Biddle, is tackling the topic of mobile and online privacy this week. He welcomes on the show Michelle Dennedy, the Chief Privacy Officer at McAfee and Denise Howell, host of the podcast This Week in Law to explore technology, privacy, and the legal implications of consumer online security. Michelle and Denise will walk through what consumers need to keep in mind when navigating the world of mobile and online. Tune in to this show here.

Be sure to follow Mobile Insights Radio to hear conversations with some of the most dynamic personalities and brightest minds – from trendsetters and futurists to entrepreneurs and hardcore geeks – that live on the frontiers of today’s technology evolution.
